Club night at Godiva and we had 8 x 1 minute efforts, with 30 second recoveries. Doesn't sound much, but the effort pace is quick, and the recoveries just about leave enough time to regain control of pulse/breath.... (by the later reps i was taking around 20secs to regain composure, leaving...

Nice one... I reckon in sessions i was putting 8-10 400mtrs together in about 78 secs when i ran my 1500.

What sort of times were your 400's? Your km rep isn't far off mine, and i'd be on the fringes of a sub 5min mile. I've done a 4:45 1500mtr track race which is about 5:05 pace for a mile, and i'd be doing "hard" km reps in around 3:18-3:20. So on some fag-packet calcs you might be currently...

Mechelen reached the Cup Winners Cup Final the year we should have been in it.... think they lost to Ajax.

Yes it started a few weeks ago. They had asked that only the invited "trial runners" attend for 6 weeks or so, to give the inexperienced organisers a chance to get used to it.... however word seems to have gotten out and i think general public are turning up now. I think the majority of the...

I remember him getting attacked in that bar at Brentford away.... shameful. I was the only one who tried to stand up for him.

Did the parkrun at Warwick Racecourse this morning. 18:37 which considering the heat was very pleasing. 5th... most pleasing aspect for me was i was being chased hard by about 5 runners at halfway, but despite the conditions held my pace for the 2nd half, and finished well ahead of them.

Tbf go round most parks in this country on a saturday and sunday..... and football is a game played by fat blokes who aren't very good at football.

My mate had a western girlfriend (can't remember if she was German or Danish)..... and could only do simple things like hold hands with her in the confines of the "British Compound". Some standard of living

Nothing wrong with it at all.... i just think the overall atmosphere is far better when there's a large away allocation. For me it improves the matchday experience.

I thought it was 10-11000 for Yeovil. Nobody was expecting another sellout, but it was a pitiful crowd.

I'm probably in a absolutely tiny minority here.... but i don't want our away end to be paltry.... it massively improves the spectacle when there's 4000+ away fans. Regardless of demand from City fans, i'd like to see our away end stay at 4k minimum.

One of my best friends lived for a number of years in Saudi Arabia.... he had some bad experiences whilst living there and said it was one of the few places he wouldn't go back to, to live..... and this is a chap who has lived all over Europe and Asia, not the ravings of a bigot... That said...

I'm sure it doesn't need saying, but blaming Dabo for us not going up is schoolboy stuff and certain people need to get a life and get over it. We didn't make it because we weren't strong enough to beat Luton over 90/120mins, and if it goes to penalties then you accept its a complete lottery.

Session on the track this morning at Pingles. Didn't do the full planned 10km effort.... stopped at 8km with 31.06 on the clock. 8.5 miles in total for the session including warmup/down.

I agree with all of this. That said, it can only be a good thing that Rob Gurney is back.

Yes but it won't be a full race effort.... just a good quality longer effort.... i'm training for a 10 mile road race at the end of November.

I went down to Bedworth Park last night with a bit of chalk and marked out a mile on the parkrun course. 4 x 1 mile with approx half mile recovery jog to take me back round to the start line. 5:42 5:44 5:43 5:49 Didn't have a planned quantity of reps before i started... just intended to keep...

No idea as i missed the first half/goal! Would be 2007/8 season.

i remember going there a few weeks after we'd beat Manchester United 2-0 at Old Trafford. A manhole cover collapsed on the M50 and loads of city fans were held up in the chaos.... we didn't get there until half time. They missed a penalty in the last minute and we held on to win 1-0. As i...
